why I preferred volleyball officiating than football officiating.

Football is a great game and a lovely game, a game everyone prefer watching than any other sports but sometime there officiating of football matches  are something else. Sometimes, some of the football matches are very bored due to the referees officiating of the football matches,  most times some of the matches played ended with bad officiating from the referees,and make some of us to lose enthusiasm from watching other matches. why volleyball umpires officiate very well than football referees, there's no time you watch volleyball match and complain about the officiating. Let me know your thoughts.

Well things are as you say, what happened is that soccer is the king of sport, that's where all the attention for these things comes in, if there is good refereeing in a soccer game, I think everyone realizes it, but Currently there are many complaints about refereeing because there are things they do or mistakes that they comment that people don't like, so there is no excuse because now the VAR exists and the VAR was created so that there would not be so much corruption, and this is just because many You have to see, however, when things are about very big games, with very famous teams, the only recommendable thing is that there is good refereeing, they have played many unplanned games and because of an referee they eliminate a goal that went as it was the case of Madrid, and they carded a player just for complaining, and that looked very bad.

So these types of things are now more complicated, a nice Volleyball game, you almost don't have to assume that the referee's behavior is the protagonist, in a soccer match yes.

to me even with the VAR, referees  officiating have not changed for good, when it comes to soccer, I think VAR  was supposed to eliminate some errors when it comes to officiating in football, but we're not seen it that way some referee just decided to do what they feel like doing, on the football pitch.

Since VAR know to public, I am not really excited watching the football matches because many games delay and postponed awhile for checking VAR review with penalty possibilities until red card or not.
Each time VAR reviewing take more than 2 until 3 minutes exactly with many controversial happening later some players have celebrate their scoring goals but disallow by referee. But football is my hobbies and watching volleyball not really excited such as football, we can want high intention with football and most found in volleyball exactly with fans of football fanatic support their favorite clubs.

You talk of VAR removing corruption out of the equation, but unfortunately it's actually much easier to fix games this way as they could easily give hash punishments for simple fouls and deny clear cut penalties and the alike...but at the end of the day VAR has come to the rescue for some of the teams out there, and it being a work in progress I believe it will get there one day!!!

As of you choosing officiating Volleyball over football, I think it's the running around on the pitch you dread not that it's boring...for volleyball the theumpire just sits there looking at their screen which I think is actually boring..no offence OP, but hey we are entitled to our own choices

I always laugh when I see people blame VAR for poor officiating. VAR is been controlled by humans and final decisions are made by referees. VAR is only there to reveal play so VAR shouldn`t be blamed rather the officials as the OP noted. We should understand too that officiating is relative in that some leagues have better usage of VAR and officiating than what we see in the English Premier League. Last weekend people complained about the officiating of Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool game. The time for play has exceeded yet the referee didn’t end the match until Liverpool scored. This raised a lot of arguments among football analysts and pundits. This is not surprising because I have seen worst decisions by referees in the EPL.

Well, when I blame the VAR, it is the abitral body (humans), because the VAR as such is pure technology, but why do I say that if there is still corruption =? because they have not given importance to technology as such, that is, they no longer know They filter the audios that the referees have, they hardly even show the play with the technological indicators, so the lack of publication of these details means that the VAR is guilty, the game you are talking about I know what you mean, but if you start See the game that took place with Madrid, they eliminated the goal and it was the referee, there was no VAR or anything, so wherever we see it with these fissures, there will always be corruption. The best cutting-edge technology may exist, but if it is managed by the refereeing body and that it is not public, because it is as if the VAR did not exist.

What it does is have something there to see that if there is transparency, but there still isn't, I hope that for the next worldCup things will change.

I do not dispute it, it is like that, even the refereeing body has the last word, the best technology can exist, the one that indicates the correct thing, but since they give more importance to human criteria, well, it is not what it should be, I think that the VAR should Implement a piece of advice or a note at the bottom that says what the technology determines, if it is offside, goal, foul, among other things, so that would eliminate the VAR refereeing body, which for me makes no sense.

Through the sensors, the responses or criteria given by the VAR can be programmed. According to this, I think it is much easier for the main referee and the line referees to be able to make the decision more clearly, or at least Only one referee is in the VAR studying the play, I think that with only one referee in the VAR it is enough, and if the VAR itself gives its opinion it is faster to give the information, and with that many misunderstandings that arise are eliminated.

volleyball has less fans so if you like that sport than football then congrats, you are among the few. wasn't the the referee in volleyball just sitting on top of a high chair watching from the top?

football is just more talked everywhere even in the bars or in school.
i think its up to the players and the team to make the match more exciting. referee is just officiating the game and just make sure the players stick to the rules of the game.

Football, I agree with you is a great game, and what I'm concerned about is the officiating from the referees, most referees are  making the game not to be exciting even the introduction of VAR is even putting infringement on the game per time and contributing making the game boring too. So that's my concern about football.
